Well, Ciel, I don't know about the horizon! It's strange, almost like an inverted fisheye lens...what I think happened is this: Lois was using an older Nikon D70...it's got some problems in that sometimes the card will all of a sudden read "format" as if it wasn't formatted. If you continue to take pictures, the pictures turn out truncated. This one, perhaps, did not truncate all the way.

The horizon struck me as well. Pincushion distortion -- I guess the camera software didn't correct for it as it was confused about the card formatting. Anyway, the colors and light in the foreground are really eye-catching!

Very very nice. I like the symmetry of the old stanchions and their reflections. I've seen crooked horizon lines before, but never an inverted one like this, pretty cool and nothing that a little photoshop couldn't fix.
